Day One of the 2024 World’s Strongest Man (WSM) contest is complete. It featured three of the six events that comprise the Qualifying Stage of the competition — Webster Stones, Deadlift Ladder, and the Sandbag Steeplechase.

The top of each of the five Groups are the coveted spots going into Day Two as the winners of each group advance straight to the WSM Final. At the end of Day Two, the second and third-place finishers of each group clash in a Stone-Off for a ticket to the Final.

Injuries and Medical

The major story following the opening event of the competition was the injury and subsequent withdrawal of Bobby Thompson. Competing in Group Five, Thompson walked 20 meters with the Webster Stones before sustaining a foot injury. He was seen wearing foot support before the Deadlift Ladder, in which he did not compete.

The Myrtle Beach heat seemed to play a role, as it often does at WSM. During the Sandbag Steeplechase, Gavin Bilton required medical assistance by way of oxygen and water. Fortunately, Bilton was cleared to continue the competition.

Nicolas Cambi, in his WSM debut, appeared to suffer an injury during the final event as well and did not secure a sandbag lift. As of this article’s publication, Cambi is still expected to compete on Day Two of the competition.
